GPS 8<br />
GPS SYNCHRONIZED TIME AND FREQUENCY STANDARD<br />
� Frequency Accuracy of 1x10 -12<br />
� Choice of Disciplined Oscillator<br />
� Very Stable Time & Frequency outputs<br />
� Optional P(Y) code GPS receiver<br />
� 1U 19" rack mount<br />
The GPS is an economical <strong>and</strong> reliable Time <strong>and</strong><br />
Frequency instrument offering a wide range of st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
features in a compact, IU rack-mount chassis.<br />
Precision <strong>time</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>frequency</strong> outputs, accurate to 40<br />
nano- seconds to UTC/USNO <strong>and</strong> 1x10 -12 respectively,<br />
are provided in a variety of signal formats.<br />
Applications for the popular GPS8 include central <strong>time</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>frequency</strong> systems, timing for power utility systems,<br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>frequency</strong> st<strong>and</strong>ards for a wide variety of<br />
communications installations. The IRIG B output is<br />
perfect for use in range timing installations, as inputs to<br />
SER <strong>and</strong> SCADA systems <strong>and</strong> for driving remote <strong>time</strong><br />
displays. 1PPM <strong>and</strong> 1PPD or IRIG B DC shift may be<br />
selected for output.<br />
A variety of internal oscillators, including the st<strong>and</strong>ard<br />
TCXO, provide price/performance trade-off possibilities<br />
for the user. The GPS 8 can be specified to include an<br />
oscillator that is appropriate for almost any application.<br />
An advanced oscillator control algorithm precisely<br />
disciplines the internal oscillator to the GPS input<br />
ensuring superior holdover performance. In addition to<br />
the st<strong>and</strong>ard TCXO, a variety of oven controlled<br />
(OCXO) <strong>and</strong> Rubidium oscillators are optionally<br />
available.<br />
� Timing Accuracy 40ns, rms to UTC<br />
� 1PPS <strong>and</strong> IRIG B Time Code outputs<br />
� Two Serial Ports<br />
� 1 MHz, 5 MHz or 10 MHz sine waves<br />
� 1.544, 2.048 or 19.6608 MHz outputs<br />
Two serial data ports, RS-422 <strong>and</strong> RS-232 are provided.<br />
Time, date, position, GPS satellite health <strong>and</strong> signal<br />
strength are reported.<br />
A precision 1PPS <strong>time</strong> mark output may be used for<br />
synchronizing or calibrating other equipment.<br />
The serial <strong>time</strong> code output (IRIG B is st<strong>and</strong>ard) allows<br />
<strong>time</strong> synchronization to be distributed to computers,<br />
displays, <strong>and</strong> other equipment requiring precise <strong>time</strong>.<br />
Two square waves, 1.544, 2.048 or 19.6608 MHz, <strong>and</strong> an<br />
8 kPPS frame rate enable the GPS 8 to be used as a<br />
telecommunications primary reference clock (PRC).<br />
Sine waves of 1, 5 or 10 MHz are also available. The sine<br />
wave outputs are configured as two pairs of two of the<br />
above frequencies. Signal level integrity monitoring is<br />
provided for the sine wave outputs.<br />
Status information is provided over the serial interface, by<br />
a summary alarm, <strong>and</strong> by four front panel LED indicators.<br />
The status reported by the summary alarm <strong>and</strong> the serial<br />
interface includes loss of GPS signal, PLL unlock, loss of<br />
output, <strong>and</strong> Rubidium oscillator unlock. (The rubidium<br />
oscillator is an optional feature)<br />
